‘THE _EVENI WASHABETON In several cities of the United States the work of abolishing the grade-crossings of steam railroads is proceedng with satis- factory rapidity. For many years there has been promise of track elevation and track depression within the limits of Washington; there have been hearings before congres- gtonal committees and the District Com- missioners; argument has been made by Fepresentatives of the various interests involved; strveys have been made; plans drawn and submitted; reports forwarded.and acts of Congress framed and even intro- @uced. And what has come of it all? Some of the busiest thoroughfares are still ob- structed by heavy railroad traffie to the public discomfort and detriment, and oc- casionally a human life is suddenly and unnecessarily brought to sudden conclu- sion. No one now attempts to defend the existence of grade crossings in large cities, ‘and no one has ever sincerely advocated a/ continuation of the evil here, but the una- pimity of opinion has not been prolific of action. The Pennsylvania company has de- clared its willingness to so depress its| tracks as to satisfy most people, while the Baltimore and Ohio management pledged itself to run its trains in on a solid ma- sonry viaduct of the most approved descrip- tion. With the appearance of childlike frankness the agents of the corporations Named discussed the plans and gave as- surance of complete willingness to do all that could be expected of them and to do it speedily. More than a year has elapsed since the last chirp was heard. It cannot be said that the conflicting views of citi- zens were responsible for the marked in- activity. The blame must rest entirely upon the shoulders of those who declared | themselves ready to go ahead as soon as Congress should say the word, but who took good care that Congress should not legislate too speedily. Every real American wants the capital of the nation to be a and some day that delightful condition will be a reality, but not until the steam railroad tracks grade, and that ancient dam—the Long bridge—has been superseded by a modern and graceful structure. ——-2-—_____ Some of the purely partisan newspapers are comforting themselves with the figures that emanate from the House Committee on Appropriations. ers as authority for the statement that the total appropriations for the fiscal year com- | mencing July 1 will be less by some $3: 40,000 than the appropriations for the cur- rent official year—“which shows,” says a representative of the class referred t< “what may be done when economy is im- perative.” Comment is also made to the effect that so much has been provided in each bill as can be spent to advantage within the fiseal year provided for. While that may be true as to some of reported, it is not true as to the bill mak- ing appropriations for the District of Colum- bia. In that measure, as it now is, there is evidence of a desire to prevent the people of the District from receiving any of the ad- vantages which should accrue from the in- creased taxation wrought by the last assess- ment. Many much-needed public works are completely neglected, and there is Con- gressional unconcern of the inexcusable sort as projected improvements for which there has long been great popular outery. +42 That was not an unreasonabie bill re- ported yesterday by the House committee on the judiciary. It clothes the Postmaster General with authority to reinstate, wnen- ever a vacancy takes place and without ex- amination by the ctvil service commission, any person who was dismissed from tne railway mail service and any person who Was serving as a probationary cierk and whose appointment was allowed to expire te by imitation, through no delinquency or misconduct of his own, between March 1 and May 15, 181, or who was dismissea from the service after the last named agate upon any order made prior thereto. Just betore President Marrison extended tne civil service rules to the railway mail service much injustice was done by the dismissal of clerks who were democrats, and it is to remedy the evil thus done by partisansnip that the bill in question is favorably re- ported. The measure needs no apology and | should become iaw. ———_ + +e Senator Jones of Arkansas may not have as much technical information about tariff | matters as some of the other members of the most august of legislative bodies, but he has the long end of the argument when he favors and advocates an increase of the tax on beer. The tmposition of an additional dollar of duty on each barrel of malt liquor would result in a revenue in- crease of not less than $32,000,000 without any increase in the cost of collection. The cost of beer to the consumer could not be imcreased, for one dollar on the barrel is but the one-fifth of a cent per glass. Divid- ing the extra dollar between the brewer and the retailer there would be no injustice Gone, for the retailer makes more than one hundred per cent on his goods and up to the present time none of the brewers have shown any indications of poverty see The administration should be, and doubt- less is, extremely proud of the unanimous and enthusiastic support acconied it in the House yesterday by those who are mem- bers of the democratic party. In spite of every effort of the government “whips” it was impossible to secure a voting quorum, although there was a democratic quorum in the House and its immediate vicinity all the day long. Of course, such a condition cannot long continue. The pressure oper- ated by the forces that control patronage is too great for the average Congressman to withstand, so that one by one all but the Most strenuously conscientious in opposi- tion to the administration's un-American Hawatian policy will be gathered in and compelled to submit to the counting process. zee When such an important matter as a change in the rules ot base ball is definitely and promptly acted upon it must seem strange to. the sporting element of society that the tariff question should take so much time. ————en— Since the completion of the marvelous “White City” at Chicago there has been sroused in this country a strong and proper sentiment which demands improvement in government architecture, and although of- ficial effort has been made to silence the ut- | terers of that which in the Treasury Depart- ment is regarded as heresy the topic insists on being fully and fairly discussed. Sweep- ing condemnation of government architec- ture is unfair and is not indulged in even by those who would see it improved as it surely ought to be, but there are many and solidly-based protests against the muitipli- cation of such structures as dot this coun- try and represent the nation’s greatness so aa as such representation is possible to a buliding. Last year Congress legistated Uberally on this subject. It conferred upon the Secretary of the Treasury power to in- vite competition ag to the designs for public buildings and tt was hoped that out of the enactment would come architectural at- tractiveness which would compare favorably with the magnificent-appearing palaces that imade Jackwon Pa>k more than beautiful. ‘Tue one obstructive section of the bill was body. are above or below | They quote Chairman Say- | | of trouble, will be tempted to drown his the bills } THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1894—-TWELVE PAGES. that which forbade the payment of any competing architect except the one whose plans were accepted, but this obstacle was practically removed when the American In- stitute of Architects averred that its mem- bers would compete under the restrictive terms of the act. The law, however, has been permitted to rust. It was not manda- tory, and when the Secretary of the Treas- ury referred it to the supervising architect, that official~who was practically a com- petitor—laid It away on a top shelf and per- mitted dust to hide the title, while he nulli- fied the provisions, There are reasons why such action should be taken. The supervis- ing architect has a large force under his control, and, although very many of the employes are so because of their skill,others have no claim whatever upon the public ser- vice unless it be admitted that devotion to Partisan politics constitutes a reason why a government appointment should follow. Such an innovation as that planned in the shelved act of Congress might result in the removal | of a few political barnacles. Is the national | artistic sense to be outraged that these po- litically faithful but frequently inefficient ones may be saved? ———_ +2 ___ Centuries of oppression have produced their logical result.

There are a few notable exceptions to this unfortunate and unjust condition of affairs, but they are | visible only when the waves of.male su- | premacy are comparatively still and the tide is at low ebb.

Heretofore the boys of the senior class have | controlled the graduation program, but the | scepter has slipped from their grasp, as it | Were, and is held by @ feminine fist. ‘The girls are in control, have given every place on the program for the coming graduation to their own sex and defy the boys to dis- turb the carefully-arranged conditions. And | all the poor ousted ones can do is to threaten to be lovingly attentive only to the girls in the junior class, and to studiously ignore the existence of the senior tyrants. —_———_)> +o The Lodge News, devoted to the inter- ests of the secret orders of the United States, is a new monthly local publication which has just made its initial appearance. | Mr. Charles L.

From the Philadelphia Press, | . In considering the grade crossing question | the point on which the most stress is laid is the danger of death and injury from these traps. This is, undoubtedly, the chief reason why such crossings should be abol- ished as soon as possible, not only in cities, | but in the country also. When Chicago ws 451 deaths at the grade crossings within its corporate mits in the year 18u3, it is certainly time that something was done to stop the slaughter. The death rate may not be so large in other cities in pro- portion to the number of inhabitants, but it is large enough to make a change im- perative. But there is another reason why grade crossings shouid be abolished, and that is the loss of time they occasion to pedes- trians, horse-car riders and vehicles. This is an item rarely taken into consideration, but a little inquiry shows it to be an im- portant one. At @ recent discussion of the grade crossing question in Chicago one of the speakers gave the result of his observa- tions as to the delay these crossings caused. He found that by watching at several crossings for three hours that he could con- struct the following table: Number of vehicles crossing. 68,375 Number of sfreet cars. 9,145 Number of Passengers inutes delayed. Vehicles delayed... Street cars delayed. 2,320, Passengers delayed. 31,367 Pedestrians delayed 18,212 Cost of delay.. $1,194.05, As there are about 150 gra ssings in Chicago, the cost of the delay they occa- sion to vehicles, pedestrigns and street car passengers must be nearly $10,000 a day, es- Umating the value of time at the price paid to day laborers. But the value of the time of half the worth several times that paid to working- men, so the cost of the delay must be in- creased by much more. Chicago is, un- doubtedly, afflicted to @ greater degree with j srade crossings than any other city, and the loss is proportionately larger there. But in every city where these death traps } and time killers are allowed there is a large’) loss of time involved. This loss, if calcu; | lated in dollars and cents, would, in a few | years, pay for the abolition of every one of these crossings. in this hurried modern life every element counts. The man who can be prompt at work, at business and in meeting engage- ments is the man who wins confidence and clients. There is no greater enemy of Promptness than grade crossings, and if they had never been the cause of the death of a single person they ought to be abolish- be because they are murderers of valuable ime.
